There is a new version (V74) on the Integraph website. Follow the links
from www.intergraph.com to Customer Service, Hardware Support, Reactor to
find the URL for the file.

I think there is.  Aside from the fact that is just more realistic, one
of the biggest differences is the gas and brake pedals.  At Talladega
for instance, it is very easy to lift slightly on the gas to stay in
the draft.  The pedals also help you to decelerate and accelerate into
and out of the turns more smoothly.  I also find it easier to hold my
line and make it through the turns with a wheel.  It's hard to
describe, but it's a big improvement over a stick.

Try playing doom with a steering wheel.

Of course you wouldn't play Doom with a wheel, but you really shouldn't
be using a joystick either.  The best way (I would go so far as to say
it's the only way) to play Doom is with a mouse(preferably a 3 button
one)/keyboard combo.  

Just another useless post from an AOLamer...

Appears there must be a problem with the Rendition Chip and Kali. I have
the same problem. Everytime I go to exit back to chat my monitor kicks
out. Hope someon come up with an Idea. Curious to see if it does the
same using KaliDos.

I do not have rendition and have the same problem, but not every time.
